Works for me as well. I have a player files in .max that has animations. I have saved all 142 frames into .3ds and imported them to Blender and exported to .mdl. My Troubles now are linking the 142 .3ds files into an animation for blender to write out a animated .mdl

Why are you even touching the .3ds format? There's some fine MD3 import scripts available for Blender, which can import md3 animations, and OMG?! EXPORT MDL!?! HOLY CRAP

as for md3 export 3dsmax plugins, theyre hard to find. the working ones that is. 3dsmax is so crap and isolated between versions it's hard for compatibility to be maintained
